FAQ
Does one Canadian employment law cover this offer?
No. Provincial and territorial standards cover most workplaces. The Canada Labour Code covers the federally regulated workplaces Canada.ca lists.
Where do I record the province?
Type it in the address. The page does not fill a province in for you.
Is this an employment contract?
No. It is the offer you type. Contract terms belong on the employment contract page, and only if you write them.
